Hautem Murder Trial in Recess as Pathologist Testifies

The Hautem murder trial in Tucson is recessed until Tuesday after noon when pathologist Dr. Louis Hirsch will be recalled. Hautem, 44, is free on a 5000 dollar bond and faces a first degree murder charge for his wife Josephine Graham Hautem's death in December. Dr. Hirsch described extensive injuries and said the fatal blow was from a broad object, not from an automobile. He noted bones broken and fractures likely occurred after death in several areas, with death estimated at least six hours before examination. A defense witness may challenge these findings later. The body was found 16 miles south of Tucson, near Nogales highway. Fifteen state witnesses have testified. Hautem's daughter from Charleston, WV, will be called next week.
